SV Design transformed this existing home’s ground level from utilitarian, basement spaces to a show stopping entertainment hub. The updated design moved an existing laundry and TV area, which were occupying exterior walls with the best potential for outdoor connections and views, to make room for spectacular spaces for summer gatherings. The home now has a kitchen and seating area to serve as a poolside cabana, an indoor-outdoor bar and a pool playing space flanked by ultra-modern wine display and storage.

This 1960’s ranch style home, boasted an original kitchen when these young new owners purchased the house and it didn’t take long before they were ready to make it their own. We decided to reconfigure the kitchen, dining room, and family room in order to create an open style floorplan that allows this small home to live up to it’s full potential. An all white kitchen plays host to a hint of color on the island for the perfect amount of personality in this space. Mid-century era light fixtures and dining room table play homage to the home’s roots while still being fresh and new for this young family. Interior Design by Bennett Design Co.

Words cannot describe how one feels in this bedroom. Its dreamy, serene, calming, light, bright, airy and pure joy. It has a subtle shimmer and this luxe feeling which really makes you smile. I had to design this bedroom twice and then wait endlessly for the install and delivery and so on so forth… but like they say, alls well that ends well. The oh so famous wallpaper in this shimmering colorway is genius. It takes a specialised eye to see potential and this became our starting point. Bed fabric, nightstands, lighting and beddging all followed this big feature moment. The wallpaper made such a huge difference. We shot the room in the day, but it plays with light at night and changes and is kind of magical. Custom bed in such a unique frame upholstered in an ivory velvet is the perfect pair while the shagreen nightands create a constrast. The beautiful bedding from Frette completes the room.

The goal for this mid-century home was to exploit the best features of the property, taking advantage of views, the dramatic light, the potential for an incredible indoor-outdoor experience and the mid-century bones of the house. When we first visited the property, I was struck by the potential for a beautiful mountain view that was currently cut off by a low ceiling height in the main living area. Raising the roof of the main living area became the largest gesture in our scope of work. The former chopped-up side entry and tiny kitchen were combined to make a long, generous kitchen and built-in banquette. The original rhombus-shaped pool was kept, restored and lined with Ann Sacks tiles. In the center of the action, we conceived a large floating desk surface suspended from a black metal screen to define the space and allow filtered light and views to pass between. The clients were drawn to clean lines, pared-down details and highly disciplined palettes of white, grey and matte black. We generally opted for deep, muted colors balanced with crisp white, adding textures to create patterns with the shifting daylight throughout the house. This soothing collection of finishes playing with light and shadow would achieve a peaceful and elegant home that would stand the test of time and honor the landscape of the surrounding area. ​ Photography: Douglas Friedman
